You can edit Enterprise Content Management server settings for installed process application snapshots using the Process Admin Console.

About this task

You can configure connection information for Enterprise Content Management (ECM) servers in the designer. You can edit the settings for installed snapshots in the Process Admin Console. Changes there are applied to the existing instances. You must specify separate settings for each server that is being used.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Process Admin Console and select Installed Apps.
    You see the list of installed snapshots.
  2. Click the overflow menu of a snapshot and select App Details. Then click the Servers tab.
    You will see entries on the Servers page only if the process application snapshot that you selected has servers specified.
  3. Select a server from the list.
    The current server settings are displayed.
  4. You can edit any of the fields.
    • Hostname: The hostname or IP address of the Enterprise Content Management server.
    • Port: The port number of the Enterprise Content Management server.
    • Context Path: The path to the application on the server. This context is different for each product.
    • Secure: Select Secure if you want your service to be secure, that is, if you want to use the Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) protocol. You will need to configure the security. Setting up HTTPS security is described in Accessing an Enterprise Content Management server using the Secure Socket Layer (SSL).
    • Repository: The name of your repository.
    • Connection User ID: The user ID to connect to the Enterprise Content Management server.
    • Password: The password for the ID that you are using to connect to the Enterprise Content Management server.
    • Always use this connection information: Selected by default. Only this user ID and password will be used for authentication. Selecting this check box means this user ID and password overrides any other user information. Remove this option if you have single sign-on enabled between the workflow server and the ECM server and would like to have the user context propagated to the ECM server when called from a human service or coach.
  5. Click Test Connection to check the settings. If any settings are incorrect, you receive an error message.
  6. Click Apply or Cancel.

Results

ECM server configuration data is included in the process application settings.
